US Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee appoints 23 members:
11 October 2019: US Department of Transportation's Aviation Rulemaking Advisory Committee (ARAC) has appointed 23 members.
"The committee is a useful forum for the Department to receive feedback from aviation community stakeholders," said Secretary Elaine L. Chao.
The US Department of Transportation founded the ARAC as a discretionary Federal Advisory Committee in 1991 to offer advice and recommendations on a full range of aviation-related issues in the development of regulations. This includes aircraft operations, airman and air agency certification, airworthiness standards and certification, airports, maintenance, noise, and training. Till now, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has implemented over 70 per cent of ARAC's recommendations.
ARAC meets quarterly at FAA headquarters in Washington, DC. Currently, the ARAC consists of 23 members who represent organisations from across the aviation community directly and indirectly impacted by FAA regulations. These include aircraft owners and operators, airmen and flight crewmembers, organisations representing airports, maintenance providers, manufacturers, public citizen and passenger groups, training providers, and FAA employee labor representatives.
